delicious food and beverages that can be enjoyed

We’re committed to reducing sugar and sodium

We Make Products Better For YouNestlé is continually working to make our food and
beverages tastier and more nutritious. Here are just
a few examples of how we’re leading the way in
helping people embrace healthy lifestyles.
Reducing Sodium, Fat and Sugar• Nestlé USA has been steadily reducing sodium levels
across brands, while simultaneously improving their
nutritional and taste profiles. We have committed
to decrease the sodium content in our products by
another 10% by the year 2015. This initiative includes
our STOUFFER’S®, LEAN CUISINE®, BUITONI®, HOT
POCKETS® and LEAN POCKETS® brands, which will
undergo gradual but steady recipe changes in order
to bring down sodium levels without impacting taste.
• For NESTLÉ® NESQUIK® Ready-to-Drink, we
have moved from full-fat to low-fat (1%) milk,
reducing calories by 35%. In 2014, we will have
reduced sugar to 10.6 grams and
that’s a 25% reduction in sugar
since 2011. And, for NESTLÉ
NESQUIK Powder, we removed 25%
of sugar, reducing calories by 33%.

Behind every Nestlé product is a team of product developers, designers and nutritionists. Here are some of our nutritionists and dietitians who are leading the way throughout the company in helping consumers make informed decisions and embrace healthy lifestyles.
Cassie Hoover, M.S., RD Nutrition, Health and Wellness Manager, Confections and Snacks Division Nestlé USA
What I do: As a dietitian, I am constantly
leveraging my training and education
to serve as a subject matter expert on
nutrition, helping guide communications
about nutrition and health, and
assessing our current product portfolio
and recommending potential product improvements.
“ Our goal is to deliver foods and beverages with the perfect balance of taste and nutrition, and that is what we strive to do every day—delight the consumer.”
Rhonda Richardson Nutrition Communication Manager
What I do: Working at Nestlé allows me the opportunity to have an impact on the products that we offer, along with providing positive messages and programs to help consumers on their wellness journey. It’s always good to hear that you have made a difference in someone’s life.
Kristen Lazaroff, RDN, LD Regulatory & Scientific Affairs Nestlé Prepared Foods
What I do: As a Registered Dietitian &
Nutritionist in Regulatory & Scientific
Affairs, I am able to provide guidance
to ensure our product’s messaging
keeps our consumer’s best interests
in mind, so they can make informed
decisions and embrace healthy
lifestyles. I also work to influence nutrition and labeling
regulations and guidelines that are not only helpful for
consumers, but appropriate for our business.
“ I aim to share my passion for nutrition, health and wellness in my personal and professional interactions by making a healthy lifestyle approachable. Healthy steps are much easier (and more fun!) when they work for you by fitting in with your current lifestyle. Making small changes work for you rather than you working for them is what it’s all about for lasting change.”
Carol Savage, MS, RD Nutrition, Health and Wellness Manager Beverage Division, Nestlé USA
What I do: As a nutrition expert I support the Nutrition, Health & Wellness strategy for the Beverage brand teams and work collaboratively with marketing, regulatory, technical and communications to drive our brand’s nutritional strategies. I help bring the “+,” Nutritional Assessment (NA) and Nutritional Competitive Advantage (NCA) to life by guiding product development to meet Public Health Sensitive Nutrition factors and strive for a nutritional competitive advantage.
“ As the mother of two, I know the challenges families face trying to make healthy meals their kids will eat and encouraging physical activity as part of their daily routine. Parents can be role models in how we incorporate nutrition, health and wellness in our lives to influence our families and friends in a positive way.”
Karen Jensen, RD, MBA Regulatory and Scientific Affairs Nestlé Pizza Division
What I do: I work side-by-side with Marketing, Quality, Packaging and Marketing as we introduce new products or modify existing ones. My role is to serve as a liaison between the Pizza Division and the USDA/FDA to ensure that our products comply with regulations and that the labeling is clear to consumers.
“ As a Registered Dietitian, I apply my knowledge of ingredients and nutrition to the Regulatory role. Nutrition is also a big part of my home life as I plan menus and share food with my family and friends.”
Meet our Nutritionists
Suzie Lee, RD Regulatory & Scientific Affairs Nestlé USA
What I do: I work to ensure that Nestlé foods meet the requirements set by our government as well as our own company in order to deliver products that our consumers can trust. As a Registered Dietitian, it is wonderful to be a part of the Nestlé initiatives to improve the nutritional quality of our foods as well as to educate consumers using our own packaging with elements like the Nutritional Compass.
“ I am committed to a lifestyle balanced with good nutrition and regular physical activity. I aim to spread my passion for food and nutrition to others and help those in need to reach their nutrition and wellness goals.”
“ I’m in love with every aspect of food and nutrition, so I’m passionate about making health and nutrition approachable. I wish I could get everyone as excited as I feel, because for me food and nutrition is life.”
